This book explains how and why Canada was able to play in the big leagues of military technology, particularly in the development of radar, RDX explosives, proximity fuses, chemical and biological warfare, and the atomic bomb. It also investigates the evolution of the Canadian national security state, which attempted to protect defence secrets both from the Axis powers and from Canada's wartime ally, the Soviet Union."--Jacket.World War, 1939-1945ScienceCanadaWorld War, 1939-1945TechnologyMilitary researchCanadaHistoryMilitary weaponsCanadaHistoryWorld War, 1939-1945CanadaKanadaswdKanadagndCanadafastLivres numeriques.History.e-books.Electronic books.

Halakhah from Qumran to the Mishnah: Concluding Remarks -- Appendix of Hebrew Texts -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index of Primary Sources -- General IndexHalakhah in the Making offers the first comprehensive study of the legal material found in the Dead Sea Scrolls and its significance in the greater history of Jewish religious law (halakhah). Aharon Shemesh's pioneering study revives an issue long dormant in religious scholarship: namely, the relationship between rabbinic law, as written more than one hundred years after the destruction of the Second Temple, and Jewish practice during the Second Temple. The monumental discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in Qumran led to the revelation of this missing material and the closing of a two-hundred-year gap in knowledge, allowing work to begin comparing specific laws of the Qumran sect with rabbinic laws. With the publication of scroll 4QMMT-a polemical letter by Dead Sea sectarians concerning points of Jewish law-an effective comparison was finally possible. This is the first book-length treatment of the material to appear since the publication of 4QMMT and the first attempt to apply its discoveries to the work of nineteenth-century scholars. It is also the first work on this important topic written in plain language and accessible to nonspecialists in the history of Jewish law.Taubman lectures in Jewish studies.Jewish lawHistoryTo 1500Qumran communityRabbinical literatureHistory and criticismJudaismHistoryTo 70 A.D19th century.4qmmt.comprehensive study.conservative religion.cultural studies.dead sea scrolls.halakhah.jewish history.jewish law.jewish practice.jewish scholars.jewish studies.judaism.legal literature.legal material.nonfiction.pharisaic.polemical letter.qumran.rabbinic judaism.rabbinic law.rabbis.religious history.religious law.religious scholars.religious scholarship.sadducees.second temple.sectarians.Jewish lawHistoryQumran community.Rabbinical literatureHistory and criticism.JudaismHistory296.1/8090211.21bclShemesh Aharon1535742MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780435203321Halakhah in the making3800846UNINA
